Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an oxidative enzyme present in phagocytes and atherosclerotic lesions. The MPO gene has a promoter polymorphism -463G/A, which leads to high (GG) and low expression (AG, AA) genotypes. We investigated the effect of long-term hormone replacement therapy

The reaction of DL-1,3-butadiene diepoxide and of DL-1,4-dibromo-2,3-butanediol with aqueous alkaline sodium arsenite, "Na(3)AsO(3)", gave mixtures of the title arsonic acids which can be separated by anion exchange resin. Characterization of by-products leads to a better understanding of these reactions.
